- Data is only imported, not indexed. You need to call `nominatim index`
- to complete the process.
+ This command allows to add or update the search data in the database.
+ The data can come either from an OSM file or single OSM objects can
+ directly be downloaded from the OSM API. This function only loads the
+ data into the database. Afterwards it still needs to be integrated
+ in the search index. Use the `nominatim index` command for that.
+
+ The command can also be used to add external non-OSM data to the
+ database. At the moment the only supported format is TIGER housenumber
+ data. See the online documentation at
+ https://nominatim.org/release-docs/latest/admin/Import/#installing-tiger-housenumber-data-for-the-us
+ for more information.
